Annotation

Exactly as on covers but below songs could be corrected if confirmed they are not matching initial releases (in other words errors made only on this compilation):
1.3 "Love Sick" Seems split on original Shellac
1.4 "Breezin’" and not "Brezzing"
1.6 "Alabamy" and not "Albany"
1.11 To confirm not "Hawaii"
2.7 To confirm Mayarí or Mayari
